## Abstract An in situ electron microscopy study is presented of adhesion interactions between singleβwalled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) by mechanically peeling thin freeβstanding SWNT bundles using in situ nanomanipulation techniques inside a highβresolution scanning electron microscope. The in situ

Raman microscopy and spectroelectrochemistry with polymer electrolyte gating is developed to study the effect of charging on Raman spectra of individual single-wall carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) and bundles. The Raman spectra of a small bundle, consisting of well-separated features from a metallic and a
This review paper discusses some basics in using continuum mechanics and molecular dynamics to characterize the deformation of single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs). It identifies that the van der Waals force between SWCNTs in a bundle distributes symmetrically and influences the bundle formation,
## Abstract The mechanism of the nucleation and formation of singleβwalled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) was investigated using molecular dynamics simulations. When the initial state was chosen so that carbon and nickel atoms were randomly distributed in a simulation domain, the formation of a random ca
